Truck is really starting to grasp the fact that he only gets rewarded if I'm shaking
and he alerts me at the same time. I've had to be firm with him and not give him a treat even if he nudges, because I don't want him alerting me for no reason. He's starting to get it, and I'm really proud of him. Tomorrow I'm going to keep a pocket full of treats on me at all times, so I can randomly pretend to shake throughout the day. We started out doing planned training session, so now we'll work on getting him to alert at random times. Wish us luck!
On an unrelated note: Today we walked to Petsmart and a lady asked me if Truck was pregnant. Um...he's a neutered male XD C'mon, he's not that fat. He just has a round ribcage! Of course, we were there to buy more treats...
